A case of the BLAH’s – Missing the North West

So.. i’m bored. Sitting here listening to music trying to entertain myself. My Google+ stream is moving kind of slow, and there isn’t much going on. I don’t feel like coding on my web site (God forbid I ever finish it) and really just want to work on my images. The problem is, I am… bored.

You know… that BLAH feeling you get when you aren’t real inspired by what you have taken, or you don’t have that OOOOOH YEAH ! shot you want to share.

It’s really kind depressing. Nothing like having the creative blues….

So…. in my moment of discontent, I decided to do something I havent’ done in awhile. I went through old images to see what I could salvage. It was there that I stumbled across my shots from Yosemite.

I went to Yosemite while moving from Seattle to Austin. Since I was driving right by, I thought it would be sacrilege not stop and pay homage to Ansel. After all I am a landscape photographer (though you would not know it from the last two years of my work). It was here in these images that I found inspiration and salvation from a night of the Blahdoms…

So… for no real reason other than I am bored out of my mind and wanted to do something with my photography I share this image.



There was snow in the park, it was windy and honestly, the weather was TERRIBLE when I took this shot. Snow was blowing everywhere and honestly I have no idea how I made it down there in my Audi…. but I did. Here is the shot.

Thanks Ansel. It is your work that inspired me the most. The traditional master of B&W. I hope my friends of B&W find this one worthy. I was happy I looked again at these images.
